Brett's definitely a boy's name. I can't see it on a girl at all. I really dislike it because I don't like Brett Favre.
Not more about Farve
I'm from the Green Bay area, and I'm sick of hearing about him. The biggest problem we have with him here is that he can't decide if he wants to be retired or not. It was popular for boys ten years ago, but now I think is avoided to avoid talking about the quatrerback.

His failure to retire is precisely what irritates me about Favre. That, and the way the commentators on ESPN spent so many years kissing his butt. I pity you, being from Green Bay and having to be fed Favre 24/7.
When he was a Packer, it made sense. Now, it's irritating. When I went to college in Madison in 95, I felt the need to watch the games, because I didn't hear as much about them there than at home. They have their own team (Wisconsin Badgers) to focus on. On the other hand, I'm still so used to having said that Bart Starr was the greatest qb ever from my childhood days that I could still easily say Bart Starr was the greatest, not the guy who broke his records.
I've never liked this name. It makes me think of 'brat.' It's definitely better on a boy, though.
Prefer it for a boy, and with the spelling 'Brett'. I used this for a cocky, mischeivous boy character in a story I was writing, a while ago.
It sounds like a "nice guy" name to me, a little 80s(?) but not too much so. It's very likeable. I think I've only heard it on American men, and I picture it on somebody athletic. Can't really see it on a female.
Definitely Brett with two T's.

It's not one of those names that I "should" like if you compare it to the rest of my favorites, but I love it all the same. It is one of the rare names for me--if not the only one--that I like almost equally on a boy or girl. (Brett Elizabeth, Bret William, and Bret Philip are favorites)
It sounds neat, friendly, and good-natured to me. One of those names that just feels nice.

Dated beyond dated, at least where I am. I know heaps of Bretts in their 30s. I prefer Brett and on a boy, but I don't get the appeal.
I like Bret as a gp for a girl. I'd never use it, but for some reason it's appealing.
I do think it's better on a boy though, and spelled Brett.

Don't like it. Sounds like a "dumb jock" type person. Prefer on a boy, probably Bret.
Eh... it's okay. Not terrible but not exactly interesting either. I prefer it for a boy and spelled Brett.
